The present work concerns a specifi c kind of nar- rative analogy or repetition involving a story within a story called the mise-en-abyme. The mise-en-abyme is a device in which a part redu- plicates the whole. The most famous example is the play within the play in Shakespeare’s Hamlet. The embedded play duplicates the main aspects of the drama in which it occurs (regicide, the murderer seduces the queen, the regicide will be avenged). Certain biblical passages also duplicate the larger narratives in which they occur. I will discuss Genesis 38, 1 Samuel 25, and 1 Kings 13 as stories within stories, more specifi cally as mises-en-abyme. All three chapters have presented commentators with the diffi culty that they appear to be interruptions of the larger narratives that envelope them. The fi rst chapter will discuss the mise-en-abyme (what it is, how to recognize it). The next three chapters will show how each of the three biblical passages noted above are mises-en-abyme within their contexts and indicate some consequences for this interpretation. The conclusion will relate the biblical examples of the device to the wider discussion of the theory of the mise-en-abyme. This work is a dramatic revision and rewriting of my doctoral disser- tation originally completed under the direction of Michael O’Connor at The Catholic University of America. Several people made my years of study at CUA possible and profi table. Michael is fi rst among these. Sadly, he died unexpectedly in the summer of 2007 and did not live to see this revision of the fi rst thesis he directed at CUA. Those who knew him know what the world has lost. He excelled in the various dimen- sions of his work. He was a patient pedagogue to students, a fruitful researcher to the academy, a tireless editor to writers, an amicable col- vii BBosworthosworth CC.indd.indd vviiii 11/7/2009/7/2009 11:06:07:06:07 PPMM viii · The Story within a Story in Biblical Hebrew Narrative league to fellow faculty, and an excellent mentor and advisor to those of us fortunate enough to have studied with him. More precious than his professional qualities were his personal virtues. His sincere care and concern for others informed the whole of his life. It made him a good teacher and a good friend. One of my last emails to him asked his advice on a range of issues. I concluded my exhaustive requests with the remark, “I guess you can stop being my mentor when you are dead.” I had no idea that day was so near. He lived to answer every one of my questions. He spent his last days as he spent every day: con- cerned for other people, especially his students.

Di Lella, Francis Gignac, Joseph Fitzmyer, Christopher Begg, Joseph Jensen, Francis Maloney, Sydney Griffi th, and Monica Blanchard. The two reviewers for the CBQ Monograph Series provided helpful feedback on an earlier draft. I also thank Mark Smith for his editorial work on the manuscript. I can think of no higher praise than to say that his editorship of this series is “O’Connoresque.” I also wish to thank my parents, Barry and Nancy Bosworth and especially my wife, Britt Silkey, a woman .(Sam 25:3 1) טובת־ שׂכל ויפת תאר BBosworthosworth CC.indd.indd vviiiiii 11/7/2009/7/2009 11:06:07:06:07 PPMM CHAPTER ONE The Mise-en-Abyme A mise-en-abyme is a device in which a part reduplicates the whole. The term has become current in literary studies since it was introduced by the French novelist and critic André Gide.1 The play within the play in Shakespeare’s Hamlet represents the classic example of the device. Hamlet stages a play that parallels the action of Hamlet. Although the term occasionally surfaces in the discipline, “no full length treatment of the mise en abyme has been conducted within biblical studies.”2 The present work seeks to fi ll this gap. I will argue that biblical Hebrew narrative includes three mises-en-abyme, specifi cally Genesis 38, 1 Samuel 25, and 1 Kings 13. I am not convinced that there are any additional examples. All three of these stories duplicate the larger con- texts in which they occur. In each case, scholars have had diffi culty fi t- ting the stories into their contexts and have not fully appreciated how the stories refl ect their surrounding narratives. The story of Judah and Tamar encapsulates the larger narrative of Joseph and his brothers. Joseph and Tamar are parallel characters. Each is the victim of a crime perpetrated by family members. Each suf- fers alienation from the family and resorts to deception as a means of restoring their circumstances. Genesis 38 therefore emerges as a micro- 1 The phrase literally means “placement in abyss.” The term is normally spelled as given above, but some writers omit the hyphens, and others write abîme for abyme. The fi rst spelling is the more common French spelling of “abyss,” but the second spell- ing, used by Gide, is also permissible. The French term is related to other mise-en-x terms in French, such as mise-en-scène (in the theatrical arts, staging), mise-en-page (in typography, page-setting), and mise-en-place (in the culinary arts, the collection and preparation of ingredients). 2 Joshua A.

The story of David and Nabal in 1 Samuel 25 similarly duplicates its larger context in 1 Sam 13:1–2 Sam 5:3.

    A Structural Approach to the Arabian Nights

    AWEJ. Special Issue on Literature No.2 October, 2014 Pp. 125- 136 A Structural Approach to The Arabian Nights Sura M. Khrais Department of English Language and Literature Princess Alia University College Al-Balqa Applied University Amman, Jordan Abstract This paper introduces a structural study of The Arabian Nights, Book III. The structural approach used by Vladimir Propp on the Russian folktales along with Tzvetan Todorov's ideas on the literature of the fantastic will be applied here. The researcher argues that structural reading of the chosen ten stories is fruitful because structuralism focuses on multiple texts, seeking how these texts unify themselves into a coherent system. This approach enables readers to study the text as a manifestation of an abstract structure. The paper will concentrate on three different aspects: character types, narrative technique and setting (elements of place). First, the researcher classifies characters according to their contribution to the action. Propp's theory of the function of the dramatist personae will be adopted in this respect. The researcher will discuss thirteen different functions. Then, the same characters will be classified according to their conformity to reality into historical, imaginative, and fairy characters. The role of the fairy characters in The Arabian Nights will be highlighted and in this respect Vladimir's theory of the fantastic will be used to study the significance of the supernatural elements in the target texts. Next, the narrative techniques in The Arabian Nights will be discussed in details with a special emphasis on the frame story technique. Finally, the paper shall discuss the features of place in the tales and show their distinctive yet common elements.

    ELEMENTS of FICTION – NARRATOR / NARRATIVE VOICE Fundamental Literary Terms That Indentify Components of Narratives “Fiction

    Dr. Hallett ELEMENTS OF FICTION – NARRATOR / NARRATIVE VOICE Fundamental Literary Terms that Indentify Components of Narratives “Fiction” is defined as any imaginative re-creation of life in prose narrative form. All fiction is a falsehood of sorts because it relates events that never actually happened to people (characters) who never existed, at least not in the manner portrayed in the stories. However, fiction writers aim at creating “legitimate untruths,” since they seek to demonstrate meaningful insights into the human condition. Therefore, fiction is “untrue” in the absolute sense, but true in the universal sense. Critical Thinking – analysis of any work of literature – requires a thorough investigation of the “who, where, when, what, why, etc.” of the work. Narrator / Narrative Voice Guiding Question: Who is telling the story? …What is the … Narrative Point of View is the perspective from which the events in the story are observed and recounted. To determine the point of view, identify who is telling the story, that is, the viewer through whose eyes the readers see the action (the narrator). Consider these aspects: A. Pronoun p-o-v: First (I, We)/Second (You)/Third Person narrator (He, She, It, They] B. Narrator’s degree of Omniscience [Full, Limited, Partial, None]* C. Narrator’s degree of Objectivity [Complete, None, Some (Editorial?), Ironic]* D. Narrator’s “Un/Reliability” * The Third Person (therefore, apparently Objective) Totally Omniscient (fly-on-the-wall) Narrator is the classic narrative point of view through which a disembodied narrative voice (not that of a participant in the events) knows everything (omniscient) recounts the events, introduces the characters, reports dialogue and thoughts, and all details.

AlthouGh students claim that Shakespeare is yet another “dead white guy that we have to study”, his work is arguably some of the most memorable and timeless stories, which everyone has heard of. The reason why we should continue to teach William Shakespeare in class is that his pieces are classic, they’re vastly popular throughout the world, and despite the fact that these works are over 400 years old can still be relatable to readers and audiences today. Shakespeare’s sonnets and plays are classic due to the fact that multiple Generations have had to read his works, each breaking apart the words and trying to figure out their true meaninGs. These classic works such as Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet and numerous others have become so popular that they have been converted into the world’s most popular lanGuaGes and his plays are performed more often than any other playwright. The reason it seems his plays are performed so often is that his stories still rinG true today since they deal with a variety of topics such as family, friendship, adolescence, loss, rivalry and of course love.
